Aaron Blabey’s latest adventure with the Bad Guys has shot to the top of our list of bestselling children’s and YA books. Alien vs Bad Guys features a creature with way too many teeth and far too many bottoms… Is this the end for our unlikely heroes? Maybe.

Two terrific new books for ages 9-12 also appear on this list, both of which have won hearts here at Readings. St Kilda’s Kim Gruschow praises the classic feel of Katherine Rundell’s exhilarating adventure, while Doncaster’s Natalie Platten has named Mira Bartok’s new tale one of her favourite middle fiction reads of the year.

Another new release we’ve fallen head-over-hells for is Megan McKean’s Hello, Melbourne!. This gorgeous picture book is suitable for ages 3 and up, and features many local landmarks including our flagship Carlton shop with a smiling Mark Rubbo standing out the front.
